Myth or truth? Should you avoid all packaged whole grain foods because they are ultra-processed? 🍞❓



Whole grains, whether from a bag of brown rice, a loaf of bread, or a box of cereal, are associated with a range of health benefits. Research shows that every 15 grams of whole grains eaten per day is linked to:

✅ 6% lower risk of total mortality

✅ 7% lower risk of coronary heart disease

✅ 12% lower risk of type 2 diabetes

✅ 3% lower risk of colorectal cancer



Some people avoid packaged whole grain foods because they are labelled “ultra-processed.” While it’s true that some products may contain small amounts of additives, reconstituted ingredients, or added nutrients, there’s usually a reason behind it.

Additives like emulsifiers or dough conditioners help improve texture, consistency, and shelf life. Reconstituted ingredients (e.g., refined vegetable oils, protein isolates, maltodextrin) can help create a consistent product, and added nutrients like folate are often included to replace nutrients lost during processing or help you meet dietary recommendations. Avoiding all packaged whole grains could unnecessarily limit your diet. Many packaged whole grain breads and cereals are high in fibre and associated with lower disease risks.



Why does this myth feel true? Packaged ultra-processed foods like sugary drinks, sweets, or baked goods like pastries are often less healthy, so it’s easy to assume that all packaged foods are bad. But the nutritional value matters more than packaging or processing. European dietary guidelines recommend eating more whole grains, including packaged options, to help meet fibre and nutrient needs.



💡 3 tips to choose nutritious whole grain products:

1️⃣ Look for whole grains as the first ingredient on the list

2️⃣ Limit products high in added sugar, salt, and fat

3️⃣ Choose foods that meet the 10:1 ratio of total carbohydrates to fibre

Saatenbrötchen

der Anschnitt.

Das waren super saftige, aromatische Brötchen mit einer sehr langen Frischhaltung. Ich hatte heute (nach drei Tagen) noch eins zum Frühstück. Das war immer noch lecker.

Das Rezept musste ohne Sauerteig auskommen, daher kam ein Poolish zum Einsatz, sowie eine lange, kalte Gare über Nacht. Für zusätzliches Aroma sorgt ein Brühstück mit gerösteten Saaten.
Die grünliche Krumenfarbe kommt vom Kürbiskernöl.

50% Vollkornanteil
25% Saaten
und eine ziemlich hohe Hydration…

Saatenbrötchen

Diese Brötchen habe ich am Wochenende nochmal für meinen nächsten Backkurs (einen Anfängerkurs) probegebacken.

Im letzten Kurs hatte ich mir einige Notizen gemacht, was nicht so optimal war und was ich an den Rezepten noch verbessern möchte.

Der Teig für diese Brötchen war beim letzten Mal sehr weich. Obwohl die Brötchen nur abgestochen werden (und ich dachte, das wäre ein sehr einfaches Rezept) haben sich die Teilnehmer damit etwas schwer getan 🫣🙈…

Ich habe daher die Wassermenge nochmal reduziert.

Am Sonntag war mein Mann das ‚Versuchskaninchen‘ und musste die Brötchen abstechen, in Saaten wälzen und auf das Backpapier bugsieren.
Er hat es zwar ganz gut hinbekommen, aber einfach war es für ihn auch noch nicht.
Der Teig war immer noch recht weich.
Dafür sind die Brötchen dann aber auch schön saftig…
Man kann sie auch nach zwei Tagen noch problemlos essen.

Jetzt bin ich gerade am Überlegen, ob ich den Teig noch ein wenig fester machen soll…

Was meint Ihr?
Kann man den Backanfängern so etwas zumuten?

EUFIC is encouraging everyone to make simple, delicious changes through its #SwitchToWholeGrains campaign. Hospitality has a unique opportunity to lead the way, showing diners that choosing whole grains and ancient grains can be both flavourful, nutritional and climate-friendly.

Whole grains are grains kept in their complete form, like brown rice, quinoa, barley and oats. Compared to refined versions, they’re more nutrient-dense, minimally processed and far less resource-intensive. They deliver better flavour, texture and slow-release energy while ranking low on greenhouse gas emissions, using less water to grow and supporting healthier soils when farmed regeneratively or organically.

Ancient grains are heritage varieties grown for centuries with little modification — millet, amaranth, teff, einkorn, spelt, khorasan. Often eaten as whole grains, their strength lies in diversity and resilience. They thrive in tough conditions, need fewer chemical inputs and adapt well to climate and disease pressures. Bringing them back into kitchens adds flavour and cultural richness while reducing over-reliance on the four crops (wheat, rice, maize and soy) that currently provide 60% of global calories — a system that weakens biodiversity and increases vulnerability.

Whole grains are packed with fibre, vitamins, and minerals and eating just 50 g a day is linked to a:

✅ 25% lower risk of type 2 diabetes

✅ 20% reduced cardiovascular mortality

✅ 12% lower cancer mortality

✅ 15% decrease in overall mortality



Did you know that the largest and most comprehensive analysis of global health risks, the Global Burden of Disease study, actually identified a low intake of whole grains as the #1 dietary risk factor for disease, disability, and early death in Europe? 🤯



𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗷𝗼𝗶𝗻?

Most of us fall shart of the recommended 25 g of fibre per day. Whole grains are one of the easiest and most effective ways to close that gap.



But we know the barriers:

❓ Confusion over what counts as a whole grain

🍚 Uncertainty about how to cook them

🛒 Difficulty finding them in the supermarket



That’s where we come in! 💪
